Hi support, i am looking for a way to turn on the receiver using the android app.

the unit is connected to my network and all works fine i control volume with the android app, can stream pandora etc. but when the unit is in standby mode the app does not recognize the unit on the network, until the unit is manually powered on. would like to be able to power on the unit with the android app.

Okay I used to be able to remotely power on my Onkyo TX-NR509 using the android phone app, and then it stopped working. I didn't give it enough time and attention to figure out why it stopped working all of a sudden.

I had run a firmware update that turned off a setting. Manually power on the receiver, Go to your On Screen setup Menu-Network->Network Control->Enable

Now you should be able to power ON your receiver from the remote app . It is so much nicer to be able to power on the receiver from my bedroom in the morning.

Hi, Love the android app for Onkyo. You have to leave your receiver in the Network Standby mode. Once you change this setting on your receiver you will be able to turn on your receiver on and off from the app and enjoy all the functions.
